The worst part is that the payment methods that are supported by PrimeStreams are all connected to people’s real identities, and these are PayPal, Visa, MasterCard, Discover, and American Express. While the users are unlikely to have provided real names and addresses for these services, this information can be usually deduced from the rest of the available data.PrimeStreams is definitely asking new subscribers for much more information than a pirate IPTV service platform should, and they haven’t taken the required measures to protect that data responsibly. Instead, he threatens to publicize 121,000 active subscriptions, with each entry comprising of the username, email address, IP address history, and payment data. However, this was a mistake that is going to cost them $70K, as the hacker is not pleased with the proposed gift. The administrator offered the hacker a free account, thinking that this was just a kind gesture from the hacker’s side, intended to help this IPTV service fix a security mistake. The unauthorized access to these databases has been confirmed, so the hacker is really in a position to realize the threats.The attacker has managed to crack a password on the service’s billing panel and even left a ticket urging the admins to reset it. This would expose the subscribers and the resellers of this IPTV service, which would put them into the trouble of facing the legal consequences.
